So far We haye been undergoing the
transition period, with its penalties.
but it is plain that the scope and d.
rectio Of our teaching are to be chan
ged. As the machine, experimenting
more and more to human intelligence,
lifts the burden of toll, the better taught
human creature will approximate less
and less to the machine, and the slow
drudge will give place to the alert man.
Wider sanitary knowledge will keep
him healthy and powerful. Health and
energy will set him to earn bread for
his soul As we'll As cabbage for his pot.
Nay, it is not impossible that the
man of the immediate future may be
able to do without both pot and cab
bage; for serious scientists are consid-
ering whether chemistry and electricity
may not yet provide . universal food,
wholesome, palatable, sufficient, and
above all things cheap, which may dis
pense with the slow proress of sowing,
re.ping and gathering into barns, with
grinding aud packing and carrying,
with pasturing and killing, and 50 re-
lease vast amount of labor and en-
ergy to flow in better channels.
The impossible has ceased to be. In
glass darkly we behold what our de-
cendants shall see face to face. But,
though it is better to live now than in
any former age, the really fortunate
race is posterity.

calls them ''conspirators against the

after referring to several similar affairs
occurring in 1879, 81 and '82, says
they were more injurious than this; but,
it adds, ''the devices adopted 1887,

lers had at one time as much as 500, :
900 bags of coffee. "a bag weighs
100 pounds.) But the end came about
the 18th inst, when became evident to
the gamblers themselves that they had
carried the experiment a little too far,
and some of the heaviest firms engaged
in the coffee trade in New York city
suspended.
A few weeks ago, wheat began to 60
up little in Chicago. It was observed
that no wheat was being sold in that
city for export. Elevators were full,

for June wheat reached 60 cents BUSH

the game, relying upon help from Gin

had fallen II cents bushel-from 90

Who does not wish to live longer
than his allotted span? In this WON
der-working age the most pious soul
nigh covet the century and a half Of
DR.. Parr, and find it all too short.
Our story-book Of life is SO exciting
that we must want to find out what
will happen next. And we know, a.
of revelation, that the sequel reserved
for our children's reading will be even
more wonderful than the contemporary
tale.
But it is comforting to reflect that
we have the pleasure to live in the very
best age so far evolved. Even if We
have sentimental sighings for . more
idylic part, we must admit that our
own time is the most eager, alert, dar-
ing, well-meauing, comfortable and
even humane of periods. And this We
say in full remembrance Of bad school
teaching, frequent dishonesty, Official
corruption, brutality, strikes and the
antics Of anarchy and nihilism, for
these defects are 50 conspicuous partly
because they stand out against = back
ground Of general order and virtue.
Nor must it be forgotten that vice can
no longer hide in corner, and, though
she may be undergoing reformation,

It is true, indeed, Is certain school

certain disastrous results. The artisan

brought an intelligent comprehension
to every part, and developed IN intel

that cuts sole, punches disk, or
turns out window-sash, and becomes
a mere machine IN the process. The
old seamstress, whose head was not
less clever than her hands, has given
place to the mere Operator, who pays
you out unnumbered yards of stitching
from her sewing machine, and has
neither invention, discretion, nor cor
